5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read, understand, and apply, January 16, 1999

This review is from: Inspirational Study Bible: Life Lessons from the Inspired Word of God (Paperback)

The New Century Version is one of the easiest to read versions of the Bible that I have ever studied. It is basically plain English, and very easy to understand. Also, thanks to the Editor, Max Lucado, there are many insightful selections from many Christian works in the margins to help guide your studies, devotionals, and personal enrichment. I have used this Bible, not only in my own studies, but as gifts for both Christian and "pre-"Christians alike. This makes an excellent study tool for anyone who wants to know more about God, Jesus, Christianity and how to live the life to which God has called us.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent translation with truly inspirational commentaries, September 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Inspirational Study Bible (Bonded Leather)

I really love the New Century Version of the Bible. I can't understand why it isn't more popular. It's elegant and accurate, and yet remarkably easy to read. There are many passages that were unclear to me in other translations, but were suddenly comprehensible in this version. An added bonus to this edition of the NCV are commentaries by Lucado and other prominent Christian writers. These brief "life lessons" really *are* inspirational, and they don't promote any particular denominational slant. This is a wonderful devotional Bible. I keep mine in my nightstand; reading a chapter or two just before I go to sleep each night is a peaceful, prayerful end to my days.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE truly inspirational study Bible!, May 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Inspirational Study Bible-NCV (Bonded Leather)

This is my absolute favorite Bible. The New Century Version makes this version easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to share with others. Add in all the "life lessons" that go with the scriptures by not only Max Lucado but a literal "Who's who" in Christian literature and you'll know why this version is fantastic! Did I mention the "100 greatest thoughts" section or the awesome chapter introductions that could only come from Max? 5 out of 5 stars, easy!
